More time and summing it up.

This week there are some great prompts, including one inspired by a post yours truly.

So, I think I might do more than one.

First is "If you could cut back on something in your life that takes up your time, what would it be? And what would you prefer to spend that time doing?"

I would cut back on housework, specifically dishes. They are never-ending and the biggest mess-makers in my kitchen. Unfortunately, the other option is to use paper plates all the time and that's not very earth or budget-friendly. I would rather spend that time playing outside at the beach, or reading, or maybe reading blogs. Really anything but dishes.

My other prompt is based on this article in the St. Louis News-Dispatch. I'm summing up my past, present and future life in 45 words.

Kat was a well-loved mother, wife, sister and daughter. She spent her life caring about those around her and entertaining the world with her witty writing. Please join her family for a memorial service commemorating her incredible life. Details to be announced.

So there you have it. The bane of my existence (dishes) and how I'd like to be remembered.

Yes...dishes are a pain in the behind. Every darn meal people expect to eat on dishes and they get dirty over and over and over and over. Seriously, we should just go back to eating with our hands on the ground.

Think your obit is wonderful and I like the "cliffhanger" to be sure to stay tuned for details on how to learn more about your incredible life after your passing....

Quite pleased your hatred of the dishes didn't make the obit cut!Maybe in the later following details, "In lieu of flowers, Kat hopes you will donate to the Dishwashing Despisers of America Association....

Dishes and Laundry are the most hated things I can think of! I told my mother when I was younger that I will only eat on paper plates and recycle them when I grew up. Sadly it doesn't work that way... Paper plates cost to much.
